nhk radio japan qsl

In March 2006, I emailed NHK World / Radio Japan with two reception reports and a QSL request. I don't remember exactly when I received it, but I photographed the QSL card in August. The envelope also included a reception report form, which is labeled with "Please dispatch within a week after reception at the latest", and "Please give definite comments - NOT merely program description".

A brochure in the envelope described the station's A06 broadcasting schedule and transmitter sites, and included brief shortwave listening suggestions.

What can you find when you tune in radio stations from hundreds or thousands of miles away? The Cobalt Pet shortwave and mediumwave weblog (or blog) is an English-language site featuring shortwave reception reports, product reviews, photos, tips, radio news, DXing discussion, and links. Articles focus on international broadcasters, utility stations, amateur / ham radio, mediumwave (AM broadcast band), and portable radio receivers. Readers are invited to leave feedback and ask questions.
